+Michael Washington At least they pulled back off the earlier tagline of how Obama was a greater Imperialist than Nixon . And I agree, its biz as usual for any Admin, the fact that its Woodward makes it a little story.﻿

Lanny Davis has generally always spoke his mind, Clinton Admin was upset with him toward the end of term 2. For any admin to pull credentials, happens all the time, the fact that its a high profile Dem like Woodward is the Story, but it's not as though some breech of the law has occurred, they made a decision, possibly not the wisest from a PR standpoint to be heavy handed with the press. Not a crime...usually its a member of the press no one knows, that's the only difference. ﻿

You could interpret it as the Obama Admin don't play favorites, that's a good thing. Could be seen as a ballsy move. Could be some High Ranking aide is now getting his ass handed to him for doing it......We may never know.﻿

+Michael Washington How is this not a threat? How is it ok that this administration is engaging in this type of behavior? Don't journaliststs have a responsibility to ask tough questions to get at the truth? Would you feel the same way if this was the Bush adminstration trying to silence reporters? I am guessing not. Reoorters should be free to ask any questions. Without that freedom, how would we get the information? Trust the adminstration to be forth-coming? I don't think that would actually happen.﻿

Hey, if Obama or the Obama admin did it, then it's no big deal and it's not a story as long as "no laws were broken". Threatening the press is perfectly legitimate. There are a number of explanations and of course, none of them could possibly be that Obama or his admin are in the wrong. Move along.﻿

Funny Casey Attaway. You can find a pattern In random parts your examining but none with this joke of an administration nothing to see just move along oh and be sure to use an insult while you tell them funny republicans to do so﻿

+Erik Walz I believe in freedom of the press but don't you think that the press has been behaving like attention seeking children for several decades now. I mean I've only been on this earth for thirty years so I'm no expert nor do I care to be. though from what I can see with my own eyes and using my own brain to process it, the press has been abusing its ability to rack up ratings. They report without ethics. They fuel petty claims like this one. It only results in America turning against themselves which is a disgrace to everything vets like myself have fought for. ﻿

+Andrew Clark don't get me wrong, I am not a fan of the media, and do agree with your point. Ethics are long gone. But that doesn't excuse this administration from being bullies and trying to silence someone because they dare to question them. This is bob woodward. How many lesser journalists, who do not have the stature of bob, been silenced by this administration?﻿

A word on Obama. I want to point out that not every military man supports these inflammatory accusations on our country current commander and chief. He's bringing my brothers and sisters home from a war that was ill handled under the previous administration. I was apart of bushes war and I will regret it for the rest of my life.﻿

Tea party members are the educated, middle class, soccer mom, regular families, rightfully worried about this government's massive over spending and overstepping of the government's limitations. They are polite, respectful, and generally quiet people.

Are there some morons in that group? Sure, as in any large group, but a much smaller percentage than in most leftist ranting protests out there,

Calling them terrorists is beyond extreme and exposes not just an extreme hatred for people with whom one disagrees, but also exposes one's inability to reason or compare.﻿

And yes it was a mistake if you go to war with another country you go to war to destroy them I regret 1 innocent life lost of Our troops not theres and as for the leveling we came close to it with out killing everyone﻿

I want to apologize for my insane behavior on this thread. I deleted a few of my comments, I was geting out of control. anger is a prominent symptom of PTS.

Basically, I am fed up with Fox News and the violence they are responsible for in this country. This news corporation stands in front of the american colors throwing around their hate like nazi germani. Mixing religion and politics. reporting opinions not news.

And basically what I want all of you who support the FoxNews to know is you are the filth of the earth.
